Our solar is going great. We've saved about $800 since it was installed.

 

 

I don't watch tv but it seems like a battery is the go. I'll still wait for 12 months of solar data, but even with the high battery prices, it's starting to look like a good option.

 

Just paid a bill so have last couple of months data. $43 debit last month and $40 credit the month before. As we only had the solar a couple of weeks at the end of March, we already had a bill of $350, that after the past ten or so weeks was a total of $250. Bills were between $300 and $400 per month previously and I've been blasting the 5.5kW heater flat out during the day to keep the house warm for night time.

 

It's starting to look like a battery will be paid for in roughly 4 years but will have a better idea down the track.

 

Get some sun up ya!

Anyone have any experience with induction cooktops?

 

I reno'd the kitchen about 10+ years ago with a Whirlpool gas cooktop/rangehood and oven while on a budget and am looking to take it a step further

 

The oven takes about 45 mins to get up to 180c and the gas stove just doesn't get hot enough for the cast iron to properly sear a steak

 

Should I look for a better gas cooktop, or is induction worth looking at?
